Fw 200

How do you spell it in German: Condor or Kondor?

The English way of spelling German words has been so overwhelming during the past 40 years that even in French some speak of "U-Boats"!

TIA

Chris

Wink Re: Fw 200

Only partly right. The bird is written "der Kondor" but the plane was named "Condor". The first letter "C" is more elegant
Just have a look at the civil Fw 200s - written "Condor" beneath a black stripe...

Regards

RolandF

Roland, I assume this settles the matter.
Thanks to the two of you.
